简要总结
This study aims to determine if a short audio clip about mindfulness implemented during NST appointments can lower pregnant women's levels of anxiety and depression. Subjects will be placed into either the intervention group or a control group. The intervention group will be asked to listen to a short audio clip on mindfulness during their NST appointments, and the control group will receive the standard of care during NST appointments. Subjects will be asked to take two surveys about anxiety and depression three times throughout the study: before the intervention, after the intervention, and 6 weeks postpartum.

结局指标
主要结局
Beck Anxiety Inventory Score
时间窗: Over the course of 6 intervention sessions, followed by 6 weeks postpartum
We are looking for the members of our intervention group to see a change in their scores on the Beck Anxiety Inventory after completing 6 sessions of listening to a mindfulness clip. We expect to see this score change after the full-course of the intervention is complete. We also hope to see this change in score persist at the 6-week postpartum visit. This scale aims to measure anxiety symptoms, and total scores range from 0-36. Lower scores indicate lower levels of anxiety symptoms, and thus a better outcome.
Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale Score
时间窗: Over the course of 6 intervention sessions, followed by 6 weeks postpartum
We are looking for the members of our intervention group to see a change in their scores on the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale after completing 6 sessions of listening to a mindfulness clip. We expect to see this score change after the intervention is complete. We also hope to see this change in score persist at the 6-week postpartum visit. This scale aims to measure depressive symptoms, and total scores range from 0-30. Lower scores indicate lower levels of depressive symptoms, and thus a better outcome.
